“An exceptional future can only be built on the transformation of the mess I’ve made out of my past, not the elimination of that mess.”
~ Craig D. Lounsbrough
When was the last time you cleaned out your garage or a closet or drawer that was full of junk? If you’re like most of us, it became a mess that built up little by little, over a long time. You knew it was there but just didn’t want to do what it would take to clean it up.
Well, my friend, this is exactly what happens in all aspects of our lives, our relationships, career, finances, health, etc. Eventually we’ll reach a tipping point and be forced to face the truth of what we’ve created.
It’s with the decision to clean it up that the transformation begins. But know this first, it will get worse before it gets better. In order to clean out the closet you’ve got to pull everything out first. From that chaos, you get to evaluate piece by piece, decide what to keep and what to discard, and then put what you want in its rightful place.
No matter what part of your life you’re cleaning up, clarity, order, and calm are the rewards you’ll receive. Stay focused on this end result, my friend, and the process will go as quickly and smoothly as possible.
